MAINTENANCE
178
24 hours after mounting, the tire
pressures
must be checked and
adjusted, and the tires and inner tubes
examined
for correct seating.
Rectification must be carried out as
necessary. The same checks and
adjustments must also be carried out
when 100
miles (160 km) have been
traveled after mounting.
Warning
Inner tubes must only be used on
motorcycles equipped with spoked
wheels and with tires marked 'TUBE
TYPE'.
Some brands of approved tires marked
'TUBELESS' may be suitable for use
with an inner tube. Where this is the
case, the tire wall will be marked with
text permitting the installation of an
inner tube.
Use of an inner tube with a tire
marked 'TUBELESS', and NOT marked
as suitable for use with an inner tube,
or use of an inner tube on an alloy
wheel
marked 'SUITABLE FOR
TUBELESS TYRES' will cause deflation
of the tire resulting in loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
Do not install tube type tires on
tubeless rims.
The bead will not seat and the tires
could slip on the rims, causing rapid
tire deflation that may result in a loss
of motorcycle control and an accident.
Never install an inner tube inside a
tubeless tire without the appropriate
marking. This will cause friction inside
the tire and the resulting heat build-
up may cause the tube to burst
resulting in rapid tire deflation, loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
If a tire or inner tube sustains a
puncture, the tire and inner tube must
be replaced.
Failure to replace a punctured tire and
inner tube, or operation with a
repaired tire or inner tube can lead to
instability, loss of motorcycle control
or an accident.
Warning
If tire damage is suspected, such as
after striking the curb, ask your
authorized Triumph dealer to inspect
the tire both internally and externally.
Tire damage may not always be visible
from the outside.
Operation of the motorcycle with
damaged tires could lead to loss of
control and an accident.
